Creative Fingers ♥ Christmas

♥  God Jul & Godt NyttÅr! ♥

 

I dagens blogpost hos Creative Fingers takker DesignTeamet våre flotte sponsorer, og jeg vil sende en spesiell takk til Rick St. Dennis.
Denne godslige julenissen (som ser ut som om han har drukket litt for mye jule-øl...) er et av mine absolutte favoritt motiver fra RSD ♥

..og vi har også en Christmas blogcandy gående helt frem til 24. Januar, da vi har tatt en liten pause med utfordringene :)

♥ Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! ♥ 

Today the DT's of Creative Fingers Challenge blog is thanking our generous sponsors through this past year! We have created cards for all the awesome artists, and I would like to say a special thank you to Rick St. Dennis ♥
 I have used one of my absolute favourite images of his ~ the 'Cocoa and cookies Santa' .. he is so very jolly, that I think it's christmas-beer, not cocoa in his mug ;)

We're also having a Christmas Blogcandy, wich will stay open until January 24th. as the DesignTeam are on an extended holiday break from the challenges ♥
